Yes, I have found that there seems to be strict liability for specific situations. Again, an example of laws being applied differently dependent upon the circumstances. It is these circumstances that I would like to know more about and which I am reading up on.

I tend to agree. However, I don't think it is as clear cut as you do. That is where we differ.
